please help! clen and cytomel arent' working

[2ncourage]

Some of you experts out there please help! I am a 32 year old female. 5'1 122lbs. Body fat is currently 22%. I did the smart thing and went to the doc and had my thyroid checked. Everything normal. I slowly cycled up and am currently taking 100 of Cytomel in divided doses and 100 Clen in divided doses. High protein very clean diet. Great workouts. Haven't lost one pound in 3 WEEKS!

Please advise do I just hang in there for a few more weeks or is there something else. A guy at the gym told me to mix cutting gel with DMSO and add yohimbine to it for my stomach.

Any Ideas?

EEK! insanity, if there was nothing wrong with your thyroid, why mess with it? IMO you need to slowly ramp down the T3 and never touch the stuff again. We need more information such as your diet mainly, because that is where your problem is, other information like your weight bodyfat experience and whatnot.

Good call with the EEK!

Drop the drugs (carefully) and learn how to maniputate your weight by naturally.

 

[Stillgoing]

Yeah, those dosages are wayyyy tooo high. Post the diet, tell us how much cardio you are doing, and, did you get your test levels checked at the same time? Low test will make bf loss more difficult.

Sorry, I should have given more details. I have gotten to this point as a last resort. I am immune to ephedra. The old Dymetadrine extreme worked great and since I can't find it any more my body fat has shot up.

workouts are as follows: mwf high intesity circuit training with moderately heavy weights.

tues/thurs i hour cardio using different machines from running to rowing to eliptical.

Every other saturday I do hundreds (100 reps of light weights)

Pilates every night.

Protein between 150-175 grams
low carb
fats come mostly from coconut oil or flax seed

Hmmmmmm

Sounds more like the Clen and cyto are bunk.

my suggestion would be try getting no more than 1gr of protein per pound of body weight...so 122gr of protein a day, maybe 130, eat good carbs in the morning only brown. dont eat carbs after 4pm NO MATTER WHAT
and also, if you want to check to make sure you didnt get ripped off, clenbuterol raises your body temperature, so just get your temp takin, and if it doesnt look like you have a fever you got some bad shit. as far as T3 you dont really need it unless you really wanna get that six pack and would do anything for it, or unless your a competitor that shit could fuck you up, but docs can fix it...so depends on how bad you want it and what you are willing to go through, keep up the cardio and work outs looks good, instead of doing pilates every night switch 2 nights for kickboxing, it will really mess you up.
just my thoughts on the subject

So you basically had a backlash effect after stopping dymetadrine... This sounds like support for Nelson's idea that stimulants for fat loss suck. They only give you temporary benefits, and once you actually stop you compensate and put the weight back on and maybe even more.
My question is (without the intention of flaming), where is this going to stop for you? What will you do once you're immune to clen (assuming you're not and your clen is fake)? Maybe you need to leave all stimulants and let your body normalize for a while. Good luck.

 

[animal69112]

I agree with anakin, fat loss stimulants, thermos, ephedra ...etc. NEED TO BE CYCLED or your body will become dependant/immune to the effects. ALSO once you get off for at least a month your diet and training have to take a step up a notch to maintain. go natural for a while, see how it goes. and find another source for your clen, and cut out the t3

 

[abc 1]

you should not be using t3 now or ever.

have you ever seen what happens to people when they come off that stuff and their thyroid down regulates? they blow up and get fat as hell (i've seen it).

let's hope you won't learn first hand but start ramping down off that shit very slow NOW.

this is an idea, maybe someone could add to it. if i were you i would go to my doc, tell him what i did and have him start monitoring you every few weeks till the t3 is gone from your system. this was not a good decision, imo, t3 is no joke and your taking more than guys i know take.

good luck and be careful.

I've said this before, but running my ass off has always had much better effect on my bodyfat levels than the strongest of fat loss drugs. And with risk of sympathomimetic immunity and thyroid shutdown, weightloss drugs aren't really worth it.

You need to drop the drugs - all of them. If you don't drop them and let your body adjust you are dooming yourself to a natural state of flab.

Get off the drugs, let your body adjust, and learn how to manipulate your body composition for real.

When you take the clen, do you feel its effects. Shaking hands? Are you feeling any effects from the t3. I tend to heat up an hour or so after taking the t3. At least initially Most I have ran was around 50mcg/d.

Just trying to determine if they are real or not.

hit up the cardio hardcore.

 

[2ncourage]

the cytomel is real not sure about clen

My Cytomel is real. I have a prescription for it. As for the Clen no my hands don't shake and I'm cold most of the time, but my resting heart rate is pretty high.

I feel like a dumb ass. I started this stuff because so many trainers advised it and all of the things you read say it's the miracle fat burner.

Your trainers are dim-wits. I hope you take my advise. Drop the drugs for now and learn how to work with your body.

 

[Judo Tom]

you should post your exact diet or close too it.. and the times you eat

then post your exact workout routine.. exercise sets reps weight

clen and t3 can help with fat burning but nothing is going to help if your diet and training routine is not in order.. you may be overlooking something that someone here can help you with.

t3 is not it. I tried it on my heffer ex with no effect(didnt know she was ,taking 3 stops a day at Wendys forwho knows what) an ECA worked but truly i hat to admit it it was back to the death sticks that let her lose 46 pounds faster than a chipmunk to its whole

What are your testosterone levels??

how much cardio are u doing and what type? That may be it as well. You also have to consume enough cals or your body will slow down its metabolism bc it thinks its starving. Most women keeps cals extremely low thinking they will lose weight by starving themselves and they will but your bf will stay the same and u will eventually be a skinny fat person. The reason I bring this up is bc u told us how much protein u were eating but not how many grams of fat or carbs. Id stay away from t3 bc if u think the rebound of coming off eca is bad wait till u come off of that stuff. BTW 22% isnt really terrible for a woman from my experience of seeing bf tests done
